ITEMS PACKED IN BAGGAGE FROM CLOTHING TO FOOD
Traders in the city market, which is a frequent destination for Bulgarian tourists, said they were pleased with the intensity experienced.
Almost all the parking lots near the market were full of vehicles with Bulgarian license plates. The Bulgarians left the market with many items, from clothing to food, and filled the trunks of their cars.
Selahattin Akmeşe, one of the market traders, who said his business was good before the New Year, said: “Everyone is fine. Can anyone say something bad at this time? There are contributions from Bulgaria, not so much from Greece.” he said. (DHA)
